You don't think that is true? I thought we'd settled before that
the likes of Pan/slrn/whatever have too many broken features.

I've yet to use a newsreader that does *exactly* what I want of it.

And I've used them all (slrn excluded - David, next week - keep a
few hours free. ;-) )

Bahh, you underestimate your ability and overestimate slrns
complexity, but, we are here for you brother :)

I had a quick go, read the man pages, thought...aww, balls...I need
David to walk me through it. I couldn't work out the config file to set
up the NNTPSERVER and associated password. Maybe I'm being dim. If
you've got a HOWTO could you send it to the email address in this
message (it's valid).

As a matter of interest, what would be the most *perfect* newsreader
that you've used?


*holds envelope up to head*

Pine

*opens envelope*

Chris Game's favorite 'news' reader.

Interesting. I am not a fan. Different stokes?

My money would have been on Turnpike!
